Michael Girdley (@Girdley) and Bill D’Alessandro (@BillDA) discuss a rapidly expanding home and business elevator maintenance company in South Carolina. From a demand standpoint, we will determine what makes this so intriguing and do a little background research on the state of the market. We will also find out why neither VC capital nor PE has purchased this company. Finally, after picking up some tips from Michael, he will share a fun reality show concept associated with this transaction.
